KMT-2021-BLG-0912Lb: A microlensing super Earth around a K-type star

Kavli Affiliate: Subo Dong | First 5 Authors: Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Jennifer C. Yee, Weicheng Zang, Michael D. Albrow | Summary: The light curve of the microlensing event KMT-2021-BLG-0912 exhibits a very short anomaly relative to a single-lens single-source form. We investigate the light curve for the purpose of identifying the origin of […]

Outer Automorphism Anomalies

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Brian Henning, Xiaochuan Lu, Tom Melia, Hitoshi Murayama, | Summary: We discuss anomalies associated with outer automorphisms in gauge theories based on classical groups, namely charge conjugations for $SU(N)$ and parities for $SO(2r)$. We emphasize the inequivalence between two versions of charge conjugation for $SU(N)$ symmetries, and […]

Stain-free Detection of Embryo Polarization using Deep Learning

Kavli Affiliate: Changhuei Yang | First 5 Authors: Cheng Shen, Adiyant Lamba, Meng Zhu, Ray Zhang, Changhuei Yang | Summary: Polarization of the mammalian embryo at the right developmental time is critical for its development to term and would be valuable in assessing the potential of human embryos. However, tracking polarization requires invasive fluorescence staining, […]

Optimized fermionic SWAP networks with equivalent circuit averaging for QAOA

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | First 5 Authors: Akel Hashim, Rich Rines, Victory Omole, Ravi K. Naik, John Mark Kreikebaum | Summary: The fermionic SWAP network is a qubit routing sequence that can be used to efficiently execute the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA). Even with a minimally-connected topology on an n-qubit processor, this routing […]

Theoretical Prediction of Non-Hermitian Skin Effect in Ultracold Atom Systems

Kavli Affiliate: Fuchun Zhang | First 5 Authors: Sibo Guo, Chenxiao Dong, Fuchun Zhang, Jiangping Hu, Zhesen Yang | Summary: Non-Hermitian skin effect, which refers to the phenomenon that an extensive number of eigenstates are localized at the boundary, has been widely studied in lattice models and experimentally observed in several classical systems. In this […]

Observation of a flat and extended surface state in a topological semimetal

Kavli Affiliate: Alessandra Lanzara | First 5 Authors: Ryo Mori, Kefeng Wang, Takahiro Morimoto, Jonathan D. Denlinger, Johnpierre Paglione | Summary: A topological flatband, also known as drumhead states, is an ideal platform to drive new exotic topological quantum phases. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments, we reveal the emergence of a highly localized possible drumhead […]
